Roughly three years after the first tenants began moving into the Glacier Rail Park, the industrial park with rail service is now completely full after Northern Plastics became the final purchaser with plans to start development of its new facility in the near future.

Northern Plastics originally purchased 4 acres from Flathead County Economic Development Authority (FCEDA) and Montana West Economic Development (MWED), who owned the property, and is about to close on an additional 6 acres, giving the company 10 acres of rail-served property with access to transload services.

“Their business, according to (the owner), is just booming,” MWED President and CEO Jerry Meerkatz said. “They are really just going gangbusters.”
